My husband and I were not planning on hiring a wedding planner due to our budget, but because our venue required day of coordinator, we started looking for one. I chose to go with Eight and Rose because the pricing was fair compared to other companies and it was within our budget. We’re so glad that we did because Lisa was AMAZING! She’s sweet, professional, detail oriented, and so easy to work with.

She went above and beyond what I thought a day-of-coordinator would be doing for us. She was a tremendous help with every single part of our wedding. Everything from dealing with the vendors and managing the timeline to helping decorating our centerpiece and wedding cake. She even took photos of us, which was so nice of her to take the time to do! At the end of the night, we had minimal cleaning because Lisa did most of it for us. I don’t know what I would have done without her! Even our guests were praising her to me on how great of a job she was doing! Our wedding was seamless thanks to Lisa!

Hire Eight & Rose as your wedding coordinator! You will not regret it!

If you don't read my long review below, just stop what you're doing and hire Lisa Wu of Eight & Rose right away! Her services were above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. She was so professional and responsive whether it was texting, calling, or email.

I initially sought out Lisa because of her fair pricing, but I'd easily pay double for the coordination she provided. From the minute we had an initial phone call, I could tell she was Type A, which is exactly what you need in a coordinator. My gut told me she was perfect for our wedding, and indeed she was!

Wedding Lead Up: We had one initial face to face with Lisa where she got to know our needs and our vision. She provided us with super helpful google docs to keep track of decor, guest list, timeline, vendors, etc. As the months of planning progressed, she was CCd on every email with every vendor, and would follow up where necessary. As a type A person myself, I never thought I'd really need my coordinator to do much, but Lisa would always beat me to the punch with following up for missing information or details our venue and vendors had missed.

Walk-through: Lisa did a walk-through with us and our venue's coordinator, where she ironed out all of the details of the floor plan and decor, and remembered to ask for things like a full length mirror in our conference room we had to do hair/makeup.

Rehearsal: Lisa was great about telling everyone where to go, how to walk properly, and taking pictures for us so we could rearrange people if we needed to. Our bridesmaid was running late but she was able to coordinate with Lisa to find where we were and make it on time. We felt very at ease and ready for the wedding after the rehearsal.

Wedding!!!: Lisa and her assistant were wonderful with setting up all of our decor exactly how and where we wanted it, and believe me we had a lot of it! Lisa had the perfect balance of being invisible but also available right when we needed her. She was there to give me a bandaid when my feet blistered, help my grandma with her corsage, and track down random vendors when we needed them, but also stayed behind the scenes a lot. Everyone says a coordinator is there not for if something happens but when something happens. Well, we know of no such happenings because any mishaps were handled 100% by Lisa as we were enjoying ourselves. She had a great balance of keeping us on schedule while still asking if we wanted 5 or 10 more minutes of mingling with friends. At the end of the night she packed up all of our gifts and decor for us, and we didn't have to worry about a thing.

The day after our wedding she even sent us tons of pictures and boomerangs she had taken of behind the scenes moments. These are so special to us, and we'll savor them as we wait patiently for our professional photos.

Can't recommend Eight & Rose enough!

We originally found Lisa off of WeddingWire and picked her because of her professionalism, thoroughness, and reasonable pricing. She was the only vendor that we hired that wasn't family or a friend. However, she turned out to be *beyond* amazing. We hired her as the day of coordinator, and she made our wedding amazing. She showed up early to all the planning meetings and carefully guided us through every last detail about the venue, vendors, decor, & timelines. Lisa was extremely responsive and flexible leading up to the wedding and seamlessly took care of a few hiccups during the wedding which I only found out about afterwards. The Eight & Rose team handled setting up our reception, sign-in table, and dessert bar amazingly. We also had my 2 large dogs roaming free at the wedding venue which added additional challenges, but everything turned out perfect.

Thank you Lisa!
